Setting the keyboard country code
By default, the appliance sends the US keyboard country code to USB cables attached to target
devices, and the code is applied to the target devices when they are turned on or rebooted. Codes
are then stored in the CO cable. Using a keyboard code that supports a language different from that
of the appliance firmware will cause incorrect keyboard mapping.
If multiple keyboards are connected to the local port, they must be of the same type (PC or Mac)
and of the same language. Only local users can view or change keyboard country code settings.
Issues might arise when you use the US keyboard country code with a keyboard of another country.
For example, the Z key on a US keyboard is in the same location as the Y key on a German
keyboard.
You can use the Keyboard window to send a different keyboard country code than the default US
setting.
